Chennai Poll Canvas: Mylapore | Heritage hub facing modern civic challenges

Chennai Poll Canvas is an election special programme from The Hindu, offering a comprehensive constituency roundup from in and around Chennai for the Tamil Nadu Assembly Elections 2026.
In this episode, we focus on Mylapore — one of Chennai’s oldest and most culturally significant neighbourhoods, known for its heritage, temples, and vibrant streets. But beyond its cultural identity, Mylapore faces several pressing civic challenges. Residents highlight recurring flooding in low-lying areas, traffic congestion on narrow roads, parking issues, and concerns around waste management. Coastal communities also point to livelihood-related challenges, while many residents believe the area’s tourism potential remains underutilised. As Mylapore continues to grow and evolve, the need for sustainable urban planning and better infrastructure remains a key focus.
